This question was posted earlier in this section but I can't find it now o.o

I'm making a piece with notes that alternate 16ths between clefs (the same way the ending of Hungarian Rhapsody N. 2 is arranged), but I'm not sure how to do this :/ Help?

EDIT: Or better yet, how do I leave the piano to stay in just one staff?

Tips for both would be well appreciated :)

use the note mover tool

The tool on the left


Select the measure, then the notes you want to move, then drag them to the desired staff.

I have no idea what you mean by this.

I'm working with 2010 here :x

and how would I be able to change the piano to where I can have only a treble clef staff instead of treble and bass?

Do you mean eliminate the bass? Or change the bass to treble?

According to the manual, you should be able to use the Note Mover Tool...

Do you mean having one staff that has a treble clef or two staves with one treble clef each?

if you mean

then you can use the clef tool

"Double-click a measure to display the Change Clef dialog box, where you can specify a clef that you want to insert in the measure you clicked."

I agree, we should take turns being moderators/updaters. I'll go ahead and set up a rotation.

Alternating Staff might just be the best idea I've ever heard of.
